Evaberry:I just don't want to believe that a lady is behind this moniker as this is the most stupid comment i have read in a long while |
chigoizie7:Lol @ #30 extra offering. .......this guy's got zero chill |
I just can't stop laughing at the comments of the men up there..... |
CarlosTheJackal:U are not a serious person. Do u know if I have any of such aspirations. Besides most I be a mathematician before I know that 2÷2=0.....anyway I'm not in the mood for any arguments but I still maintain that the youths should stop trivializing serious issues like this....I wonder how they can make it to becoming leaders of tomorrow with this kind of mentality. Everything shouldn't be comedy |
CarlosTheJackal:Ok...so in what particular manner have not practised what I preach if I may ask? |
CarlosTheJackal:I'm a youth. So what's ur point? |
Well said. ....when it's expected that the youths would act serious and take advantage of this opportunity, they're busy making mockery.......issokay |
SammyGyang:Really? ....this is a first. |
This kind interview that's about Jeremiah Gyang, couldn't that daily trust reach him so he can answer those questions by himself. Why are u doing the work of 2IC. Or is this one interview by proxy? |
When placed in all-female groups, 68% of single women reported that they would prefer a job that paid a higher salary and required 55–60 hours of work per week to a job that paid a lower salary and required 45–50 hours per week. But when placed with male peers, only 42% of single women did so. Similarly, in all-female groups, 79% of single women reported preferring a job with quicker promotion to partner but substantial travel to a job with slower and less certain promotion but no travel. When placed with male peers, only 37% of single women chose that option. Moreover, single women were less likely to choose the career-focused option when there were more single men in the group. Single women’s answers to a placebo choice between a job with a positive social impact and a job with collegial coworkers were not affected by the gender of the students in their group. Lastly, we conducted a student survey and an analysis of participation grades. Our survey asked 261 of these same first-year MBA students whether, in their previous work experience, they had avoided certain actions that they thought would help their careers, because they were concerned it would make them look “too ambitious, assertive, or pushy.” Sixty-four percent of single females said they had avoided asking for a raise or a promotion for that reason, compared with 39% of women who were married or in a serious relationship and 27% of men. Over half of single women reported avoiding speaking up in meetings, compared with approximately 30% of women who weren’t single women and men. Our analysis of participation grades indicated that unmarried female students had substantially lower class participation grades than married ones. Class participation is observable to peers and may signal students’ ambition or assertiveness. Consistent with our hypothesis, male participation grades did not differ by marital status. Many of our additional analyses suggest these differences in behavior between single women and women in relationships are likely driven by the marriage market concerns, not inherent differences between the two groups of women. For example, it is not the case that unmarried women, in general, are worse students than married women; both groups had similar grades on their exams and problem sets (grades that classmates can’t see). Similarly, relationship status did not affect women’s reported preferences and skills when they were kept private from classmates. Taken together, our results suggest that single women avoid actions that would help their careers because of marriage considerations, and that marriage considerations may be an additional explanation for gender differences in the labor market. Many schooling and initial career decisions, such as whether to take advanced math in high school, major in engineering, or become an entrepreneur, occur early in life, when most women are single. These decisions can have labor market consequences with long-lasting effects. While extrapolating to other settings is beyond the scope of this paper, elite female MBA students are a select group, one that presumably places a higher value on career success than the general female population does. This suggests that the effects of marriage market signaling are perhaps even larger in other contexts. We hope that future work will assess interventions that may mitigate the negative effects that marriage market concerns have on women’s careers.

QueenOfNepal:Lol....Abeg if u understand wetin him dey talk, kindly epp a sister. But hope say no be your oga o, I no wan hear say them sack person. .. |
What was that CEO even saying: so much for a CEO |
AlexCk:Unbelievable right?....it's a crazy world. |
IamLEGEND1:I don't think it's cooked. I had similar experience, I was so shocked and afraid that I couldn't shout. U know when u see a good looking and well dressed man in his senator attire start misbehaving. .....I just couldn't think straight as my heart raced - could he be lunatic or his own perversion was uncontrollable. Anyway I decided to ignore him since he was masturbating and prayed the bus gets to my destination ASAP |
Famouson:Oga the fact that u've never had such experience doesn't make it a lie. I can categorically tell u that such a thing can happen as I have seen it happen, the only difference this time was that the man was doing himself inside the bus. |
It's okkkkk Cc: fedayeen, bujumbura, mojaheeden. |
gentlegenius:IBrotherly, business is not childsplay o plus it's not everybody that can do business. I know of a woman whose husband decided to set up a business for but she ended up eating both the profit and the capital. |
sunshineG:Like I always say u can not determine the good qualities of a person judging by his/her status - the fact that she is an executive director doesn't mean she is going to be a nice person even though it will present opportunities to help shaping her - the choices are hers to accept or reject. On my preference, I'll go with career women but those women can be dangerously difficult many a time. |
sunshineG:No...they've got alot more time than the career woman, for men who desire time. I think u are flirting with the idea of going with career women..... |
sunshineG:The aim actually is not to make money per say. The aim is to leave them with reduced free time - like when the kids are at school U know the saying "an idle mind is the devil's workshop " is true. So while they are busy doing nothing, they are distracted from those unnecessary thoughts instigated by idleness. |
Originalsly:Lol...I understand. That is what the society wants us to think. See I was raised by my dad singlehandedly from infancy so I can categorically tell u that ...it's just a thing of mindset. So still i insist that child rearing is 50-50 else the upbringing the child gets becomes lopsided. |
sunshineG:Lol @empty shops.....at least she won't run to hubby for salt and pepper money every now and then |
sunshineG:No, don't get it twisted. Majority of our mum's were house wives who had things doing by the side like selling pepper in front of the house or going to plant vegetables in the backyard space so as to assist the family . I mean they had something keeping them busy unlike the full house wives that sit in front of the tv or goes to mama baby's house to gossip about the new tenant. So nothing actually changed save that we've got more lazy girls who wants to look extravagantly posh with other people's money without adding value. |
sunshineG:Well, it's not a function of being a career woman or a housewife. It's a function of the person's character, cos as far as I am concerned u can not give what u don't have : there's no way a saucy woman can teach her daughter politeness neither can a dirty mother teach her kids grooming even if she is working class with little time or housewife with all the time. |
sunshineG:I must say that woman is her own problem: it has nothing to do with her job or the fact that she's a career woman cos even if she were to be a full house wife her children would still be the same or worst. I think she has a character flaw which has affected the upbringing of her kids |

Originalsly:Yeah that's right "one is not better than the other" ....however I'll like to point out that the job of child rearing does not fall on the woman by default. The man and wife are both stakeholders - so therefore being a career woman should in no wise affect child upbringing or the lifestyle of the family in general. The onus lies on both man and wife to work it out in the most convenient way. |
While being a house wife can never be said to be easy, I must say I will rather opt for career as more exposure is gained, mental power is built and financial independence follows. Career women may likely not have all the time in the world for their family like the full housewives would but I personally think that there is more advantage in that than disadvantage: for example less time for gossips, less time for stalking hubby, even lesser time for nagging plus they try to make the most of the unavailable time - time to them is defined by what is achieved. |
Why is she not smiling? On a second thought, this is definitely not the only snapshot they took na. Why post this one? I suspect someone is just being mischievous. |
